Help Nashville Food Project grow, cook and share food with community

Join us Aug. 19, when Hands On Nashville volunteers will grow, cook and share nourishing food with Nashville's homeless and impoverished through the Nashville Food Project. Sign up at Tennessean.com/volunteer.

One in six Tennesseans struggles with hunger every day, so that's why Hands On Nashville is looking for volunteers on Aug. 19 from 10 a.m. to noon to help cook Nashville's impoverished a healthy meal through the Nashville Food Project.

Volunteers will be helping with washing and chopping vegetables, slicing bread and making desserts. Bring your imagination and help us turn their fresh ingredients into delicious hot meals for our neighbors experiencing homelessness and poverty.
